Never heard of this Japanese brand and have no idea where I can get it but the fairisle patterns are amazing, this whole collection is awesome, I love how they have matched the colours and used the patterns as accents on the sleeves of the shirts, can't wait to track some of these down, watch this space for more info...

Kr3w Footwear 2010

Supra's success has far surpassed that of its sister clothing company kr3w so it was enevitable we would see a footwear line from the brand at some point. Like Supra they use simple designs and quality materials that give a really nice look, I especially like my namesake Grant model, its a nice mid which benifits best from the grey/white colourscheme...

Undefeated x Converse 'Poorman Weapon' Release

LOST Inspired....

LOST has been one of my favourite shows since it hitting our screens in 2004, now into its final season which aired yesterday in the US we see the series inspiring some footwear design.




Firstly Nike SB well known for taking concepts and spreading them liberally over their shoes, gives us the Dunk and Blazer Hi. The Dunk being driven by the Oceanic Airlines colour scheme and the Blazer based on the Dharma Iniative idea of stations on the island, this one being 'The Shoe', the canvas look is really nice on this one...



Then yesterday we saw the release of a Special Supra Vaider which the based on the Expose TV program which features throughout the Series' of LOST. The reason I love this shoe is because just like the series it has many hidden references to the show and even the release number of 17 pairs, is from the 14 episode of season 3 (14+3=17)...

Nike SB Bruin, Janoski and Blazer

The rise of the SB's, the Bruin, Janoski and Blazer Models were huge last year and that made them sure fire early 2010 releases. Needless to say the Janoski Army inspired theme looks great but I think there will be plenty more colorways hitting the shelves during 2010, you can never go wrong with the Bruin its a classic shape and in the mean green I might think about these. And finally Black/Red is my favourite colorway and this Blazer already has fiends drooling...
